inflammation and swelling

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi Everyone,

I haven't been on for a while been a bit under the weather I am hopefully next week going to get some meds as I haven't had any since I was diagnosed 2 years ago,

my question is does anyone when they are in a flare up with wrist pain and inflammation experience the swelling and inflammation moving up their arm.

I haven't been treated yet because they couldn't find anything I could tolerate, and to add insult to injury I now have Parkinson's

    Oh bless your heart Linda, I'm so sorry, Parkinson's on top of everything else is not funny.

    In answer to your question, yes I do experience the swelling and inflammation moving up my arms. I had both wrists injected under x-ray a few weeks ago which has improved things considerably and like you my body does not tolerate many of the meds. I do hope they can find something to suit and make you feel a little better.

    They are also having problems finding the right meds for my Parkinson's so consequently using the compute isn't easy when your hands are shaking all the while,glad to hear you have had some improvement.
